Most of the time I like clean simple images, but sometimes I want to add a little something extra to an image to give it a totally different feel. Enter the Green Tree Media Nature Texture Set. I designed this set completely with imagery …
Celebrating Ryan’s Birthday
Well Monday was not only Martin Luther King Day, but it was also my wonderful husband’s birthday. It seems weird to think that I’ve gotten to celebrate a decade of birthdays with him and I look forward to celebrating many decades more with him. He’s been my rock and support throughout the last ten years …
